I'm in the process of purchasing a mobile PA and am strongly considering the QSC series. I'm considering starting out with two K12's and one subwoofer. I was going in the direction if an 18" sub (KW181) but then keep seeing stuff about the KSub. It's two 12" speakers in a box, putting out bass at 1000w. It seems like it would be easier to transport. How much thump are you losing by going the KSub route?

The KW181 will absolutely slaughter the KSub. I personally haven't used the KSub but from all accounts it's nothing amazing

The QCS powered 18 and even even 15 are better choices than the Ksub if you value sound quality and low frequency extension. The 18 sounds particularly good. Ksub has been generally underwhelming to those who have tried/heard it.

Thanks. Yeah. After posting this, I found the youtube clip comparing the two.
Definitely staying on track with the KW181.
